Game #90 time: 1:40 p.m. PT tv: 4SD sp: Justin Germano (5-3, 3.90) vs Brandon Webb (8-6, 3.37) pre: Padres.com, SI.com Brandon Webb’s GB/FB ratio is down a bit this year (3.18).

When Is Zero Greater Than Sixteen?
The story was supposed to be Jake Peavy‘s 16 strikeouts and complete dominance. The story was supposed to be Terrmel Sledge‘s opposite field home run off sinkerballer Brandon Webb. The story was supposed to be anything but what it became. It’s a credit to the Padres’ bullpen that a two-run lead headed to the eighth [...]
